Artist's statement. My paintings are a quiet reminder of what has gone before; the form remains as an echo of the event. The hopes and dreams of thousands breathe life into the vessel, and then, just as quickly, stillness returns. Stadiums are left empty, noiseless, but nonetheless reminiscent of the passions they were designed to hold. The stadium becomes a living organism, clarified through absence and reduction, broken down and reconstructed with each match.”
